Where Have I Been All Your Life

You may be wondering where I've been or why I haven't posted in almost 2 months, and I assure you I have a pretty good reason. That reason being that I've been promoted to dispatcher at work and have been training so I no longer have my Sunday morning writing sessions. I also moved into my own apartment in Malden, so that has been taking up a lot of my free time outside of work. Believe me, there has been no shortage of things to write about recently and it was practically killing me that I just couldn't find the time to share my "unique" perspectives with you. I still have at least 3 weeks of training left, but the good news is once I am on my own I should be able to find time during my shift (most likely overnights) to write, especially given my new source of material...phone calls with drunk college kids on a recorded phone line.

A few of the things I wanted to blog about but lacked time to put some thoughts together:

• 2 weeks short of the 1 year anniversary of my appendectomy I am finally done dealing with Brigham & Women's Hospital. I finally convinced the collection agency that the only way they would get their money was to bill the state and I was ready to take them to court to prove this.
• I realized how many dumb, naive Americans actually believed a greedy, power hungry dictator would hold a legitimate election.
• I realized that North Korea hasn't learned from Japan's mistakes and is flirting with disaster. You don't mess with Hawaii.
• I realized that people only pretend to care about Iran and North Korea so their followers on Twitter think they are cool. When people like MJ die that is far trendier than petty things like human rights and nuclear war.
• Lastly, I remembered how much I miss writing this stuff and will be back as soon as I can.
